Stop n Shop

Hi Hilary and Arthur.  I just won a $25 gift card to the grocery store "Stop and Shop".  I entered a contest somebody was having on their blog and won it.  The only problem is we don't have those here.  So if either of you have that chain in your area let me know and I'll send you the card.  Otherwise I guess I'll give it to Kurt's brother who lives in Boston, since I know they have lots of them in MA.  I'd rather give it to you though.  Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow, this guy hates the Supreme Court

So today my torts professor got the lead prosecutor in the Exxon Valdez oil spill case to come speak to us about how it feels to get destroyed by the US Supreme Court. Apparently it doesn't feel too good. To say this guy is just bitter would be an understatement. I can't say I really blame him though. He spent over 20 years of his life prosecuting this thing and only got 232 million dollars in punitive damages in a class-action lawsuit where the original punitive damages were 5 billion dollars. His firm lost money on the case and he's basically done nothing else for hte past 20 years. Oh yea, he hates Exxon corp. too. To hear him tell it you'd think Exxon was its own country or something.

The first interview

I conducted my first interview with Charles last week. 

Blog List

I added a list of blogs to our blog.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not obsessed with blogs.  But its interesting to see what people are up to, and how they present themselves.  (extremely happy most of the time)  Please add to it if you find good blogs.  You can also add websites I believe - they don't have to be blogs.  Its a feature they put so people who read your blog can know what you read on the web, and who your friends are.  I would especially like to know what Arthur reads in the way of blogs, if any.  I bet some of his friends have some.  hint hint.

Don't have a baby without insurance

He's discovered his cute face.

Oh my word!  I just got the bill for the delivery....$13, 207.46.  I'm not kidding.  Of course we have insurance so we'll pay only a fraction of that.  Unbelievable though isn't it!  I thought it would be 7 or 8 grand - thats what the internet said was the average price.  But prices must be going up.And this is for a perfectly normal delivery - not C section - and for a healthy baby with absolutely no special needs.  Anyways just a warning to Hilary and Arthur - don't have a baby without insurance.
